How to Apply for Financial Aid

FAFSA Form:
You must complete and submit a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to apply for federal student aid and most state and college aid. FAFSA on the Web is the quickest and easiest method of applying. You can submit an electronic application on the internet at:www.fafsa.ed.gov. Be sure to enter the ACTCM school code: 030782. Apply early. You must apply once each year by filing the FAFSA or Renewal FAFSA. We recommend that you complete your financial aid application no later than 90 days prior to the beginning of the relevant quarter of enrollment. 

Apply for a PIN:
We recommend that students and parents request a personal identification number (PIN) before applying for aid. The PIN can be used to electronically sign your FAFSA application, dramatically decreasing the processing time.  You can also use your PIN to make online corrections to your FAFSA, access your Student Aid Report, sign the master promissory note for a federal student loan and access your federal student aid records online including your student loan history information on National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS).  You should apply for your PIN at http://www.pin.ed.gov before completing your FAFSA.

Supplemental Financial Aid Application
The financial aid offce at ACTCM also requires admitted students to complete the Supplemental Financial Aid Application Form.  You can download this form off our website under Financial Aid Forms or pick up the form on campus.  Complete the form and submit to the Financial Aid Office.
 

 

 

“ACTCM teaches you to take things in small, digestible bits – whether it is classwork, food, or life in general. I have learned to slow down, to become more meticulous in my methodologies, and more astute in my discernment. I come home every day feeling inspired because the things I am learning are immediately useful and applicable to my everyday life. I can now interpret my own health in a way that makes sense, rather than having my body’s functioning processes remain a mystery.”
